Say that for some reason albertas population tripled in the next 10 years, do you think outfitters allocations would be cut three fold? Me either. With that I'm out.

Just a thought, but with this government we may want to be a little careful about attacking the outfitting industry. We just may find ourselves out in the cold with them.

Everyone pays taxes, residents don't own the game, the government does, the sense of residents entitlement is just horrid. I hope they never go to Africa or New Zealand to hunt, or fishing in the states. They would be hypocrites.

The government owns NOTHING!, they are the citizens employees, an inconvenient fact they all forget 10 minutes after the polls close....

Everyone does not pay provincial tax.
The gov't does NOT own the game.
What other countries do is none of our business.

My point is. Hunters are so greedy nowadays. "Just because this, I'm entitled to that." Like Tork said, it's like the kid on the basketball court that has 9 out of 10 balls and is whining for the last ball. It's sickening.

So, you think it is right that a non-res can shoot a bull moose every year, but a res has to wait 10?

It is what it is, I don't need a moose for myself every year. And guiding is a part time gig I do, so that would let me go moose hunting every year if I decided to guide moose.

So the taxidermists, gas stations,grocery stores ,hotels, propane retailers, airlines, bars, liquor stores , Cabelas, would all be out of business if there were no non resident hunters, but they would get along just fine if the Alberta residents all stopped using their services?

I'm sure I can stay right out of that thread as there will be much opposition to wants of our "friends" at APOS.

I don't see it. From what I understand IN MOST CASES, (correct me if I'm wrong), most tags given out on any given draw season are reserved for residents, based on percentage. I worked for a few different outfitters that I've never heard them complain about resident pressure. I'm sure there are a few bad apple outfitters out there who break the rules or are unkindly to residents. But there are just as many bad apple residents who aren't the greatest representation of ethical hunters either.
I'm a resident hunter and I also do a bit of guiding. I can see how guys don't understand how they have to wait "x" amount of years when a non-resident can come every year, but I know that I personally don't need a trophy antelope every year, or a moose, or an elk or mule deer in the draw zones, (I could pull a landowner mule deer every year if I wanted) where I live I am content with the opportunity I have, eventually I'll pull a tag and I won't have to pay stupid money for it.
The guide in me likes seeing guys buying hunts up here, I get to participate in the hunts and get paid to do it.

There are a ton of resident hunters out there, and its obvious by their posts, they are far more greedy than any outfitter I deal with. It's truly pathetic by all of the posts the huge amount of cheap shots, attacks, complaining and whining going on.
